Answer:

12

Explanation:

his he had lost 12 of his marbles then he would only have 12 left to begin with.

to do this we can do the equation:

24/0.5 (the 0.5 is the represent that the 24 marbles had been split into two, a half for each party)

this would then give use our quotient of 12 marble he had lost
